Dear List, I hope this is a proper forum to bring this up - but I have been annoyed with the fact that once a phone call is arriving in N900 (currently with Maemo Fremantle) there is a rather large room for error when you need to take the device out of a pocket or a backpack's drawer.
Since the UI is immediately ready for touch, you usually make an accidental press on the 'RED' button and reject the call from the other party. If you were expecting an important call from overseas where it is hard to trace or sometimes the number is blocked it creates a problem as you can't get back to the other party. Let us note that the 'RED' button is very close to the edge of the touch scree, so if you pull the device backward from a pocket or a backpack bag you will most probably reject the call since you have nowhere else to grab the device with, before you've had a chance to see the identify of the caller. I propose we have something like current S60 (for me on the N97 mini) UI for reciving a call in which you have to swipe your finger over a green button to answer the call, and rejecting is not possible until you've unlocked using the lock/unlock button which in the N900 is the small slide handle on the side of the device. If this is nor the place or the Handheld UX team has already solved this, I apologize for the noise, but if so , please let us review the solution and think how it will behave "in the field" :-) Sivan _______________________________________________ MeeGo-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-dev
